Low Tide Rock pooling in Cornwall - Seaweeds, Crabs, Anemones and Underwater Sea Creatures.

[@TheFishLocker]

I am going to be taking James and some of his classmates out for some shoreline education sessions in the summer. If we have any dates free would anyone else be interested? Government restrictions allowing of course. 😊

[@allornothing7957]

I would be! Depending on where exactly as I’d need to anchor out nearby (if the boats ready) haha love the videos!

[@philmurphy7532]

Yes John my girl would love that, and we are local

[@nigelmilne3503]

Wanted to do similar with my wee man's school but my work PVG (for a school) doesn't cover me for a different school. And the staff didn't want the kids getting dirty. Hope you have better luck than me lol

[@barbaraverdoorn9076]

I love the cushion stars. They are so tiny & just darling! I also think that plant you showed that pops if you squish them is cool.

[@johnbaxter3086]

I love watching these videos they’re so interesting yet relaxing

I don't even fish or eat most sea food, but I love these videos. I could listen to him talk all day long!

[@TanukiSC]

I could watch these for hours at a time. Your respect for the sea and it’s creatures is truly wonderful. Thank you for sharing these adventures with us!

[@mstrdiver]

John - At 03:05, you are educating us about a seaweed variety called Oyster Thief with the floating bladders. Is this also a type of Sargasso Weed?

[@arnonym113]

I don't even live close to the sea and still am mesmerized by watching your videos and how connected you are to nature. Thank you so much for sharing all these insights. I now even think about traveling to Cornwall some one day.

[@amybracey6149]

Wow, thank you. Amazing & relax full to watch. Laughed at what you called the crabs mateing

[@alexisgrunden1556]

It was so cute how the squat-lobster seemed so much calmer around you after you removed its parasite. I know I'm anthropomorphizing the little critter, but it always feels like creatures are saying _'Thank you!'_ when they do that~

[@TheFishLocker]

Interesting isn’t it. I have noticed that many times with creatures of the ocean.

[@alexisgrunden1556]

@@TheFishLocker Even some bugs will display gratitude, at times. It's bizarre behavior to see from creatures with brains smaller than a grain of couscous, but always such a warm feeling. They always know~

[@xli69]

Another great video John, I came initially for the fishing but now addicted to the foraging videos. My kids love spending hours in the rock pools around us (Padstow way) and your videos have enabled me to sound like I know what I’m talking about 😁

[@peidog]

Amazing knowledge and passion.....wet foot and wet jeans happy days.Thats some crazy amount of sea weed washed up.

[@SusanJamieson-4]

I love your videos all the way from the center of New York State. I love them all but the diving vids are my absolute favourite! Thank you all the time!

[@keihana15]

I grew up in an Island bit I'm still amazed every time I watch this kinds of videos. So beautiful and refreshing to watch.

[@MotoHikes]

Hey John - Been watching your content for well over a year now, and just wanted to say thank you for the peace and serenity you bring me. What's more, is it's been a large contributing factor to me going back into education to try and become an ecologist/marine ecologist. Thank you.

[@TheFishLocker]

That is amazing to hear and I wish you all the very best of luck on your journey. 😊

[@davidb.7093]

(A) only marked down because it was too short! Always brilliant, educational and relaxing add to that great commentary and filming. Nice that your taking James and other children out on the beach to educate them. It used to happen when I was in primary school in the very early sixties, it should be part of the curriculum and coupled with education on litter and the need to conserve, perhaps the future would be in better hands.

[@TheFishLocker]

Sadly now there is so much red tape for things like this it often fails before it even gets started. Some things you just cannot learn in the classroom. 😊

[@EUROWEFILMS]

I rcognise the shore, if i'm right, back in 1950/55 we used to play on the old beached German U boats, probably some remains still there somewhere.

[@TheFishLocker]

That’s down the far end. 👍🏻

[@duanekennard3298]

Hello again to my friend on the other side of the pond ! Another fine video.I'm sure you have been told this many times but the nice thing about your videos are that if it's your first time watching or a long time viewer....All you videos are very informative and educational. Anyways my friend...You and your family stay safe and healthy. Hopefully we will be on the water chartering next week. CHEERS MATE !

[@jg2072]

I've been watching for months but I still really appreciate your "basic" videos like this with the scientific names and such. I have worked on inland waters so this ocean stuff is new to me. Thanks for your hard work on the vids.

[@TheFishLocker]

It is my pleasure. 😊

[@MARKSAQUATICS]

Hi John. I'll have to come down your way and go for a forage to get some green snake locks for my native marine aquarium series I'm doing. All the best Mark

I clean my local beach and loved looking at the rock pools so much life in them crabs are always watching u to ambush lol

[@DannyCreech]

I absolutely could watch you doing this for hours. So interesting. You are to the sea creatures what Steve Erwin was to Crocks. Few people cared much about crocks and even feared them until he came along. You show up on the Sean and make tide pools way more interesting than they already are. Please keep making videos like this. BTW, cool accent.

[@michaelsadventures4261]
